In this episode of Bad HOA, Luke Carlson and Marty Vasquez introduce the STRIKE Method, a practical framework homeowners use to approach disputes with clarity, documentation, and strategic discipline.

We walk through each step of STRIKE—Stay Calm, Track Everything, Record Evidence, Invest in Knowledge, Keep It Precise, and Escalate Only If Necessary—and explain why this approach consistently puts homeowners in stronger positions.

This episode is designed as a reference point for anyone dealing with a bad HOA, whether you’re just starting a dispute or trying to regain control of one that’s already underway.
